The young adults we serve through Life Launch come from difficult situations, unsafe homes, and/or fractured relationships.
That’s where you come in.
Life Launch empowers young adults from hard places by matching them with a small group of volunteers who care. A Life Launch small group commits to show up, listen, encourage, mentor, and support one young adult for one year.
The young adults below have been interviewed and approved by our program staff. They want to participate in Life Launch. They want to get to know you! Are you ready to Stand in the Gap?
